NIIW: Keep the Momentum Going

As part of World Immunization Week, all six World Health Organization (WHO) regions will simultaneously promote immunization, advance equity in the use of vaccines and universal access to vaccination services, and enable cooperation on cross-border immunization activities in April 2015. In collaborative and complementary efforts, U.S. state and local health departments, national, state and local immunization partners, healthcare professionals and parents will promote the protection of the health of children and communities through immunization.

7 Ways to Keep the Momentum Generated from NIIW 2015 Going

Evaluate your efforts and compile lessons learned. Convene NIIW planners to brainstorm what went well and what can be improved upon for future events. Consider crafting a best practices document that can help guide your year-round immunization efforts and your planning for NIIW 2016. Refer to the Evaluate Activities document.

Set a date to brainstorm new activities and ideas for your immunization program with staff, partners, and volunteers. One of the best ways to generate new ideas is to harness the creativity that came out of your NIIW efforts and follow up on the ideas generated during your activities and generate more.

Invite new partners from your NIIW activities to the brainstorming session and keep them engaged in your immunization efforts throughout the year. For ideas, see the Build Partnerships document.
